Fuel injectors are ticking, is there an easy fix?

Well I ordered a Walbro Fuel Pump a couple days ago, so i'm hoping that helps. My car is essentially a stage one evo. The fuel injectors are ticking, and it's driving me batty. Is there anyway of cheaply repairing them???? I see that they sell for a little over $300, but I want to avoid that. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I checked my oil level and it is fine. My buddy checked the duty cycles, and they appear to be ok according to his scanner. IE I hope you miss a shift if we race, that way I can rub it in after you lose I've heard of some places that utilize a spray directly threw the injectors to clean them, which might work. Anyone have any ideas?

Some injectors click more loudly than others. It might have to be something you'll have to live with. They are solenoids, afterall I don't see how cleaning them will make them quiet down.
